Sudden cpu consumption

Hello Engineer,

thank you for reaching our forum with this problem.

We are sorry that it is happening to you.

Can you please explain what exactly is wrong on your side? Is the game still crashing, or are you experiencing some stuttering or some other symptoms that are observable in the game?

If you are observing some problems with the system when running the game, that were not present in the past, please try our general workarounds to see if any of it would help you/resolve the problem that you are experiencing.

These are:

• Verify your game files in Steam - right-click on Space Engineers in Steam Library → Properties → Installed Files → Verify Integrity of Game Files
• Delete SpaceEngineers.cfg file (it means your game configuration will be deleted) - you can access your SpaceEngineers.cfg by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.
• Delete ShaderCache folder - same access as above
• Back up your whole Space Engineers Roaming folder and delete it
• Restart Steam
• Reinstall VC Redist 2017
• Update graphic drivers
• Reinstall the game
• Make sure your operating system is fully updated

Please let me know if anything from this list helped you.

If not, please try to specify more what the problem exactly is and where and how it can be observed. Also please supply me a log file from any of the affected game sessions.

You can access your log files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards
